This is Drifting – Formula D, NJ

This is drifting. Monster pic post from Formula D @ Wall, NJ.  Let’s go!

Anatomy of a Crash: Evo VIII

I’m only posting this because the driver walked away fine. Sequence taken at NJMP during the Redline Time Attack in April, 2010.  Uphill right hander to apex, then downhill to track out.  My guess is the driver came in hot, lifted (lift throttle oversteer), the rear got light, spun, kissed the barrier. Ouch.

EVO XIII, Meet the Barrier

Also from Sunday’s Redline Time Attack @ NJMP. No, that’s not going to end well… (the driver was okay.  The car, not so much).

Quick Update

Just a quickie.  Busy planning out the fun for the month’s ahead.  Will have a full update soon.  (I hope!) Bulgogi Bros used a pic of mine for their ‘Snow’ gallery.

Dirty, Filthy Snowpocalypse S2000

Forgot to add this photo to last night’s post. Let’s call it, ‘Dirty, filthy.’ Enjoy!

Secret Mountain Retreat Edits

I know I’ve been reposting a lot of stuff that isn’t my work lately, but  that’s because I’ve been coming across such interesting things that I’ve felt compelled to share with you all.  So I have. But tonight, some originals. I’m not one to do a lot of post-processing.  I figure, if I can’t get [...]

Godzilla
Godzilla

As an automaker (not you, Toyota – the Supra and Celica All-Trac notwithstanding), you know you’ve done something right when one of your models lives on in infamy under the moniker, ‘Godzilla’.  Man On The Move kindly used one of my photos for a blog post.  I’ll skip the pleasantries and get right to it.

Stress

After posting my video short, ‘Beer Run‘ on s2ki.com, a poster mentioned that it reminded him of Claude Lelouch’s 1976 film, Rendevous. Short Movie Rendez-Vous of Claude Lelouch, in Paris in 1976 On an August morning in 1976, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a Mercedes. He drive at [...]

19 Most Dangerous Roads in the World

I like cars.  I like bikes.  After seeing these photos of the ’19 Most Dangerous Roads in the World’, my first thought was, ‘I wanna ride/drive these!’ Mind you, I have a bit of experience with the winding, twisting roads of Europe.  And, if I’m being perfectly honest, what I want to do is to [...]

Two Vidoes I Keep Rewatching

First, a Will Roegge and Joshua Herron collabo – ‘Keep Drifting Fun‘.  I’m digging the music.  Great driving, thumping rhythm.  Song is ‘Percussion Gun’ by White Rabbits.  Looks like iTunes just bled me for another 0.99. Drift Mechanik’s Keep Drifting Fun from Joshua Herron on Vimeo. And second, Red Bull F1′s promo for Quebec 2010.  [...]

Snowpocalypse in the S2000

I’m long overdue for a big post.  And given the recent big weather the mid-atlantic’s received, I felt it only appropriate that I give this storm it’s due in the best way I know how – by venturing out into this mess and making photos.  So, without further ado, I bring you the fruits of [...]

Redline Round 6 Photos In Print

I mentioned it before, here, but that doesn’t make it any less exciting to see your own work in print.  So here are the scans of the article that my photos appear in from the November 09 issue of Performance Auto and Sound magazine (pasmag.com). Table of contents.  p104, that’s me! Big thanks to Laura [...]

Englishtown Photos Were Picked Up!

No new photo shoots recently as I’ve been on vacation.  However, I did get some fantastic news while I was away.  Redline Time Attack has picked my set of photos to be featured in a future issue of Performance Auto and Sound magazine!  I’m not sure what kind of lead time they work with, so [...]

Redline Time Attack at Englishtown
Redline Time Attack at Englishtown

It’s been an extremely busy week for me and there are no signs that things calm down any in the near future.  I guess that’s a good problem to have! I was granted a media pass to Round 6 of the Redline Time Attack @ Englishtown Raceway in NJ on Sunday, Aug 30th.  Saturday’s event, [...]
